For Puerto Rican artist and Royal College of Art graduate Jun Martínez, the natural landscape becomes a site through which histories of colonialism are remembered and reclaimed. His paintings emerge from direct encounters with the environment, translating them into immersive compositions that move between landscape and abstraction. At the centre of the booth is a pentaptych painting focusing on the roble blanco (Tabebuia heterophylla). Native to Puerto Rico and celebrated for its spectacular pink and white flowering canopy, the tree serves as both subject and symbol, with its reforesting capabilities acting as an emblem of survival and renewal. Martínez sets the fragile beauty and biodiversity of the Caribbean against the pressures placed upon its ecosystems with the roble blanco becoming a way of understanding the landscape as a living archive. For the artist, this tension offers a regenerative proposition. The landscape is not passive or acted upon. It is active, living and capable of renewal. From an island whose past and present remain deeply shaped by its relationship with the United States, Martínez looks to the resilience of the natural world as a way of reimagining place.
